Hey there. Hoping for some help from all the Qbooks users.  

We file our HST instalments quarterly in QBD, but are now trying to run the sales tax report to show our annual return.  The report shows our total for line 101, but nothing for 105 & 108.  Combined we'd have figures here but can't figure out how to get the report to show the proper #'s. 

As well, we received a refund from the Receiver General last year which was posted against the GST account.  Anyone how where to post this receipt to?  

Thank you.

Hi mbeatty,

 

Being able to pull up historical information in your QuickBooks Desktop company file is important to make sure everything was entered and filed correctly in your books. I can help go over how to do this in QuickBooks.

 

When you pull sales tax information that has already been filed in QuickBooks it will allow you to see the filed amount but will not break it down per line. To get that information you will need to view the previous filings by going to Sales Tax>View Prior Sales Tax Returns. From there you can open each sales tax filing as a PDF to get the line information you would want.

 

To add a refund from the receiver general you would need to make them as a customer and receive that amount as a payment. If you are looking to enter it as a Journal Entry i would suggest contacting your accountant as they are trained on which accounts to pick. If you don't have an accountant, we have you covered. You can go to our find an accountant page and find one in your area to assist you.

 

Once they tell you what accounts to select, we can assist you in how to create a Journal Entry.

 

Hope this was able to help.
